Either way, great price and it feels very solid, so we'll see. I traded in a circular saw, orbital sander, and a package of saw blades I had laying around the house here that I hadn't used in years, and got $37.50 credit, so this ended up being $162. Not too bad I don't think





I'm fully charging the first battery now, and taking it into work tomorrow.... we'll see how it does

Nice. I forgot about the warranty. That was another reason I wanted one. It had a longer warranty and better price then the big name units. I would double check the warranty on that unit. I think most refurb units have a shorter warranty so 6 months. Might be right.

What brand were your tools you traded in? That seems like a low trade in value. You might been would have been farther ahead keeping the tools and selling a cup of sperm.
